Itâ s nice to have them also understand and work on roofing. They were able to see that my roof was newer and didnâ t need any attention before installing solar.
Response from Forecast Energy

"Thank you for sharing your experience! Our background in roofing helps us ensure every solar installation is built on a solid foundation. We're glad we could confirm your newer roof was all set for solar, and it was a pleasure working with you to bring renewable energy to your home!"

I am a general contractor and Forecast Solar has installed several systems for me. I use them exculsively. They do quality installs and they stand behind there work. The first project they installed for me is nearly ten years old and they are still responsive if the homeowners have any problems.
Response from Forecast Energy

"Thank you for trusting us as your exclusive solar partner! We're proud to provide quality installations and ongoing support for you and your clients, even years after the initial work. It's always a pleasure working together to bring reliable solar energy to each project, and we look forward to many more."

These guys were extremely easy to work with. They communicated well leading up to the day of installation and installation was completely done within a few hours. When the city came out to check the install and permit stuff, the city was shocked and asked me who installed because NONE of the local companies ever had all their information this organized. I would absolutely use Forecast Solar again!
Response from Forecast Energy

"Thank you for sharing this! We're thrilled that the process was smooth and that our organization made a strong impression with the city inspectors. That's exactly what we aim for. It was great working with you, and we're here if you ever decide to expand or need anything in the future. Thanks for choosing us!"

Forecast Solar has installed two separate systems for me on my house and they stand behind their work and honor their installation warranty for 10 years. They installed my first system 9 years ago and after it paid for itself I was excited to have them install a second system with improved optimization technologies. I have 49 panels on my roof and now I generate all of the power I need to run my house, charge my EV and even heat my hot tub. I appreciate honest companies that care and take care of you. When my inverter died due to mfr issues after over 8 years, they took care of me and provided all of the labor and coordination to get it fixed at no cost to me. Two thumbs up!
Response from Forecast Energy

"Thank you for sharing your experience with us! It?s been a pleasure working with you on both systems over the years, and we?re glad to hear how well they?re supporting all your energy needs. We truly appreciate your patience with the inverter issue and are glad we could get it resolved for you without added hassle. Your trust and partnership mean a lot to our team - two thumbs up right back at you!"

From start to finish, Forecast Solar handled our entire project. They accurately designed the system for maximum production, directed us towards appropriate financing sources, scheduled the install and kept to schedule, and were only a minimal disruption while putting 36 panels on our roof. They were thoughtful about the curb appeal of our house and the panel array is not visible from the street. That was 6 years ago, and all is still working without a single day of trouble. This system continues to generate zero dollar PSE bills during some summer months, and also returns an annual cash rebate check for what our system contributes to the community PSE grid for the rest of the year. Highest recommendations for Forecast Solar!
Response from Forecast Energy

"Thank you so much for sharing your experience! Knowing that your system has been running smoothly for six years, with benefits like summer zero-dollar bills and those yearly rebates, is exactly the kind of outcome we hope for. It was a priority for us to keep the installation on schedule and minimize disruption while working to maintain the look of your home?glad to hear it all came together well. We?re grateful to be part of your energy journey and truly appreciate your recommendation!"

Got a few quotes for solar panel install and Forecast was not the cheapest, but they were affordable and worked with me on budget and how much of our power bill we could offset. Their designers were helpful and install went off without a hitch.

I?ll pass along your feedback to our design and install teams?they?ll be happy to hear everything went smoothly. If you have any questions down the road, feel free to reach out!"

28 solar panels installed 7/2018 in our all electric home. Sales person estimated system would pay for itself in 7 years and we are on track to achieve that. Electric bills in spring/summer of appox. $20 (the minimum from Snohomish PUD). Max bills in January/February of approx. $200, after banked credits have been used. Previously max bills were in 300-350 range. Annual payment we receive for production is approx. $2000. Only issues so far have been (1) one panel failure, which Forecast Solar noticed through monitoring, and (2) failure of the Inverter. Paid for labor on the panel failure, but no charge for replacing the inverter.
Response from Forecast Energy

"Thank you for sharing your experience since installation! It's great to hear how your system is helping reduce your electric bills and meeting the payback timeline we projected. We're always here to support you, whether it's troubleshooting or monitoring performance, and we're glad the inverter replacement went smoothly. Here's to many more years of clean energy and savings!"

I did an owner assisted install with Forecast and they were fantastic. I did the panel installs, the low voltage side, and they came in and did the inverter, permitting, and grid tie. During the entire process they were super engaged and helpful. Wher emost companies you talk to just want to get you off the phone unless you're getting a huge bid, Kyle Herzog wanted to do in-depth phone calls and he was especially helpful right at the outset and gave me lots of goodwill advice about anchors and possible pitfalls of the project. They also helped me source some obsolete parts that they stocked. Positive attitudes, reasonable prices, you can't go wrong with this team.
